That's scary. Imagine having someone like Hitler or Saddam or Osama bin Ladden around for 1000 years.
Seems like Castro has been around that long.
To all who think dying is a good thing,, be my guest.
we don't need you here bringing the rest of us down!
You must have a miserable life to think that being here on this magnificant planet for as long as you possibly can would not be a good thing...
Bored,, NO WAY,, imagine the degrees you could get,, Phd's in Science, Physics, Chemistry, math, art, etc etc etc,,
Poor, probably not,,, even at 5% interest a modest investment becomes millions of dollars, give enough time!
Think of all the cool antiques you could collect in 1000 Yrs!
Imagine traveling out into space, living on Mars, being alive to particiapte in the first Interstellar travels, exploring the nearby star systems, becoming a citizen of the Galaxy!
You'd have the time to start over and over again, until you get it RIGHT!
The wisdom one could accumulate would give you the power to make magnificant contributions to the human race.
Of course if your a screw-up then "Life in Prison" would certainly be a fate worse than death!
We are meant to evolve, and we will evolve. I believe this article is right on the money,,, And I plan to be 1000 years Old! Hope I can make It!
